Consider Pixels/Foot
• Detail Matters: More Pixels Equals More Detail• Facial or License plate recognition requires approximately 140 pixels per
foot

Reduced Cost per Square Foot Under Surveillance
• Reduced cameras to install AV3100 (3M camera) can replace up to 9 analog cameras AV8180 (4x2M camera) can replace up to 24 analog cameras Camera mounts, wiring, lenses, enclosures
• Lower NVR licensing fees Average cost per NVR ranges from $50 to $400 per camera.
• Reduced wiring cost Ethernet is less expensive than Coax
• No External Power Cameras are powered via “Switch” Powered Over Ethernet (802.3AF)

AV1300 – The 4Cif Analog IP Killer
The industry is seeing mounting evidence that Arecont Vision’s AV1300 1.3 megapixel camera is capturing an ever-increasing share of IP camera sales worldwide.
Why? Key points when selling against standard resolution IP cameras:
• The AV1300M is priced competitively with most of the leading brands in low resolution IP cameras.
• When set to quarter resolution (640x512), produces comparable file sizes, bandwidth, and storage requirements to that of low resolution IP cameras.
• When the customer is ready to benefit from megapixel resolution a programming step changes the camera to full resolution.
• Alternatively, the cameras can be switched to full megapixel resolution (1280x1024) during alarm events and then back to quarter resolution (640x512) when the event ends.
• The AV1300 is the only 1.3 megapixel camera that is able to achieve more than 32 frames per second.
• With the AV1300M, Arecont Vision poses a very real challenge to the competition and a compelling question to consumers: Why would someone buy a standard resolution IP camera if they can buy Arecont Vision’s megapixel camera at a comparable price? Especially since Arecont offers the flexibility of adjusting the resolution up and down to adapt to storage and/or bandwidth constraints.
Result: Arecont Vision offers “future-proofing” that no other CCTV camera can match.
Future Proof - Quarter Resolution
Purchase a megapixel camera and run at ¼ resolution to save bandwidth and storage. When Storage and Bandwidth are less of a concern, increase to full
resolution without exchanging cameras.
Full Resolution (1600x1200)AV2100163KB
Quarter Resolution (800x600)AV210040KB
Image Cropping
• Pixels can be cropped off at the sensor• Only required data is sent conserving
bandwidth and storage• Streamed images can be cropped vertically
or horizontally.
Horizontally Cropped
Vertically CroppedUn-cropped
Conclusion
• Reduced system cost
• High resolution for archival retrieval
• Unparalleled Quality At Unbeatable Price

Mega Pixel Family Features
– Made in the USA– Easy to Use, less than 5 minutes to install
• Connect Ethernet from the computer to camera, and load software. It’s that easy. – Ten times the resolution of a high quality analog camera
• 2040x1530 versus 640x480• Up to 24 frames per second at 1600x1200 (24fps is same as a DVDs)
– Data transfer rate at over 55 Mbit/sec– View Multiple frames simultaneously
• View an 800x600 image and a high resolution image box simultaneously– Change resolution on the fly
• i.e.. view 9 frames in 800x600 mode and then view the 10th frame in 1920x1080 mode. (saves bandwidth)
– Sensitively down to .01 lux --- very low light sensitive – Multiple power input
• Separate power supplies are no longer required for powering cameras. The Megapixel cameras allow system installer the simplicity of connecting a single Ethernet cable to carry both power and video. This allows greater flexibility and significantly decreases installation costs.
